I hope it's not your pump because those electronic steering pumps are quite expensive (around $800 from toyota)
Take note of when and how it cuts, try and chase any loose terminals it may be cutting out possibly because of a loose terminal not grounding when going around a corner or something... basically all i can say is check all terminals for good clean contact, check any fuses and then consult a a guru from toyota if that doesn't sort it out.
Hope you get it all sorted.
